Parenting and marriage, kids and vacation, devastation and survival – the quotidian stuff of life. In his typical fashion, Todd Solondz spares no one and skewers everyone in a play about privilege, race and the intersection of black and white.

This program is supported, in part, by public funds from the New York City Department of Cultural 3 2 Affairs in partnership with the City Council.

THE FLEA THEATER THE FLEA THEATER Michael Sternberg Celeste Tramontin Tony Tramontin Sigourney Weaver Stephen Weinroth Emeritus / In Memoriam David Prittie 183 THE FLEA I.P.’S In June of 2009 The Flea launched a unique patron program called The Flea IPs - an elite and dedicated group that helps to make the dreams of The Flea a reality. Flea IPs gain insider access through exclusive events including private talk-backs, intimate artist dinners, master classes and first-look readings. Flea IPs commit their support by generously pledging $5,000 each year. Interested? We’d love to make you a Flea IP too! Please contact Carol Ostrow at 212.226.0051 x104 or [email protected] for more information. The Flea proudly salutes our Flea I.P. members and thanks them for their unwavering support. EMMA AND MAX THE FLEA CAPITAL CAMPAIGN Over twenty years ago The Flea’s founders undertook an artistic experiment, renting an old TriBeCa factory in the wilds of Lower Manhattan and opening the doors to the most iconoclastic and talented artists they could find. Since then The Flea has evolved into an award-winning theater known for presenting the very best of Off-Off-Broadway theater, music and dance. We have also become an emblem for the resilience of Lower Manhattan, THE FLEA THEATER THE FLEA THEATER drawing more than 150,000 people to the area since the 9/11 attacks. To continue in that leadership role, we purchased a site nearby that is now our permanent new home. Our goal is to continue producing our own intimate and exhilarating work while providing stability to dozens of other artists and performance groups. We are grateful to the following for their lead gifts to the project: INSTITUTIONAL SUPPORT of the State of New York The Shana Alexander Paul T.
